China: Big Cities & Iconic Culture

Beijing → Shanghai 15 days Up to 18

About this trip

Fifteen days across China, moving from the scale of Beijing to the karst hills around Yangshuo, then into rural Fujian before finishing in Shanghai. It's a mix of major sights and quieter, less-visited corners.

In between the big cities you spend time in Yongding, staying in a Hakka tulou village and getting a sense of a rural, traditional side of China that most itineraries skip.

A fully guided group trip, so logistics and local context are handled for you as you move between very different landscapes and paces of life.
